Questions & Answers about Guru menutup pelajaran dengan doa singkat.
Why is there no word for the or a in Guru menutup pelajaran?
Indonesian usually does not use articles like the and a/an.
So guru can mean teacher, a teacher, or the teacher, depending on context.
Likewise, pelajaran can mean lesson or the lesson.
In a real situation, the listener understands from context whether this refers to a specific teacher and a specific lesson.
What does guru mean here, and is it singular or plural?
Guru means teacher. In this sentence, it is understood as singular: the teacher or a teacher.
Indonesian nouns usually do not change form for singular vs. plural. If you want to make plurality clear, you can use context or reduplication, for example guru-guru for teachers, but that is not needed here.
Why is it menutup and not just tutup?
